Twelve stories about the people who surround us. Marysya lies on the bed by the window and looks out into the street with longing. For the first time since her mother's death, Vera makes her way onto the street. A stranger tells the story of his life to a random fellow traveler. Igor takes care of the village cemetery. A “little man” who has lost his leg sits at the supermarket checkout counter. The village idiot keeps an eye on the abandoned airfield. One old man celebrates Victory Day with tears in his eyes, another walks on trains singing, a third is preparing to celebrate his centenary. Somewhere Clara is afraid to leave the house, and in the rented house the girl finds notes from an unknown person. These are their stories.
